Meghan Markle recently faced backlash after discussing money and mindset on her Lemonada podcast with Spanx founder Sara Blakely. While praising Blakely’s financial confidence in her twenties, Meghan admitted it was “hard to understand” that mindset, especially for women taught not to talk about money.

She added that guilt often surrounds wealth, while many women struggle with a “scarcity mindset,” feeling they’ll “never get enough.” Though she praised Blakely’s clarity and generosity, critics found Meghan’s reflections tone-deaf given her privileged background.

One social media user commented, “Imagine whining about money with an inheritance,” while another wrote, “She spends like there’s no tomorrow.” Others called her comments “classless” or accused her of masking financial struggles.

Still, some fans defended Meghan’s honesty, calling it refreshing. One supporter wrote, “Breaking the taboo on money talk… good insight!”

Separately, Meghan and Prince Harry stirred reactions with a backstage photo from a James Taylor concert. Meghan’s pose leaning toward Taylor sparked scrutiny, with some suggesting she appeared closer to the singer than to Harry.

Commenters also critiqued her appearance, calling her outfit too formal and noting details like “flat” hair. Yet others celebrated the couple’s joy and ease, praising them for living authentically outside royal protocol.

Despite the criticism, the Sussexes seemed to enjoy their outing. While Meghan’s candidness ignites debate, it also opens space for broader conversations about women, wealth, and public perception. Love her or not, Meghan continues to spark discussion wherever she goes.
